He speaks openly about problems with The Source magazine and its editor Benzino, as well as Murder Inc. Records, and explains the feud between Ja Rule and 50 Cent, which Eminem felt went way beyond the Jay-Z vs. Nas feud. The song finishes as Eminem offers a truce to his enemies. Like Toy Soldiers features prominent sped-up sampling from "Toy Soldiers" by Martika.Read Full Bio"Like Toy Soldiers" is a song by American rapper Eminem from the album Encore. It tells the story of his attempts to calm a violent community of rappers. He speaks openly about problems with The Source magazine and its editor Benzino, as well as Murder Inc. Records, and explains the feud between Ja Rule and 50 Cent, which Eminem felt went way beyond the Jay-Z vs. Nas feud. The song finishes as Eminem offers a truce to his enemies. Like Toy Soldiers features prominent sped-up sampling from "Toy Soldiers" by Martika.The song's video, released in 2004, which depicts Eminem's fellow D12 member Proof being gunned down in a drive-by shooting, took a sudden and tragic turn in the early hours of April 11, 2006, when Proof was actually shot and killed at the CCC nightclub on Detroit's 8 Mile Road.Cameo appearances in the video include 50 Cent, Obie Trice and D12.Deceased rappers Tupac Shakur, The Notorious B.I.G., Big L and former D12 member Bugz are also shown at the end of the music video to show the fatal consequences of rap wars.Eminem leaves out a word in this song when referring to Dr. Dre's own feuds. This word is believed to be "Suge", a reference to Suge Knight with whom Dr. Dre had problems in the mid 90's."Like Toy Soldiers" was included on Eminem's compilation album Curtain Call: The Hits in 2005.In addition, this song also brings up some issues with his ongoing feud with Ja Rule who made some remarks about Hailie, Marshall's daughter, on a song called "Loose Change". Ja Rule called Eminem's wife 'a known slut' and his mother a crackhead in the song and wondered what Eminem's 12 year old daughter Hailie was going to be "when she grows up".

Step by step, heart to heart, left right leftWe all fall downStep by step, heart to heart, left right leftWe all fall down like toy soldiersBit by bit, torn apartWe never win but the battle wages on for toy soldiers

I'm supposed to be the soldier, who never blows his composureEven though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shouldersI ain't never suppose to show it, my crew ain't suppose to know itEven if it means going toe to toe with the Benzino, it don't matterI never drag 'em in battles that I can handle less I absolutely have toI'm suppose to set an example, I need to be the leaderMy crew looks for me to guide 'emIf some shit ever just pop off I'm suppose to be beside 'emThat Ja shit, I tried to squashed it, it was too late to stop itThere's a certain line, you just don't cross it, and he crossed itI heard him say Hailie's name on a song and I just lost itIt was crazy, this shit went way beyond some Jay Z and Nas shitAnd even though the battle was won, I feel like we lost itI spent so much energy on it, honestly I'm exhaustedI'm so caught it I almost feel like I'm the one who caused itThis ain't what I'm in Hip Hop for, it's not why I got in itThat was never my object for someone to get killedWhy would I want to destroy something I helped buildIt wasn't my intentions, my intentions were goodI went through my whole career with out ever mentioningAnd that's just outta respect, for not running my mouthAnd talking about something that I knew nothing aboutPlus Dre told me stay out, just wasn't my beef, So I didI just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth while he's all over TVNow I'm talking a man who literally saved my life, like fuck itI understand, this is business and this shit just isn't none of my businessBut still knowing this shit could pop off at any minute cause

It used to be a time when you could just say a rhymeAnd wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dyingBut now it's elevated cause once you put someone's kids in itShit gets escalated, it ain't just words no more, is itIt's a different ball game, call names and you ain't just rappingWe actually tried to stop the 50 and Ja beef from happeningMe and Dre had sat with him, kicked it and had a chat with himAnd asked him not to start it, he wasn't gonna go after himUntil Ja' start yappin' in magazines how he stabbed himFuck 'em 50, smash him, mash him, and let him have itMeanwhile my intentions pulled me in other directionsSome receptionist said the source who answers phones at his deskHas an erection for me and thinksThat I'll be his resurrectionTries to blow the dust of his mic and make a new recordBut now he's fucked the game up cause one of the ways I came upWas through that publication, the same one that made me famousNow the owner of it got a grudge against me for nothing but fuck itThat motherfucker can get it too, fuck 'em thenBut I'm so busy being pissed off, I don't stop to thinkThat we just inherited 50's beef with Murder IncAnd he's inherited mine, which is fine, ain't like either of us mindWe still have soldiers that's on the front line that's willing to die for usAs soon as we give the orders, never to extort usStrictly to show they support usMaybe shout 'em out in a rap or up in a chorus to show we love 'em backAnd to let 'em know how important it is to have Runyon Avenue soldiers up in our cornersTheir loyalty to us is worth more then any award isBut I ain't trying to have none of my people hurt or murderedIt ain't worth it, I can't think of a perfecter way to word itThen to just say that I love y'all too much to see the verdictI'll walk away from it all before I'll let it go any furtherBut don't get it twisted, it's not a plea that I'm copingI'm just willing to be the bigger manIf y'all can quit popping off at the jaws with the knocking'Cause frankly I'm sick of talkingI'm not gonna let someone else's coffin rest on my conscience 'cause

@Cardinal Sūkikyō Fantastic lyrics, fucking modern poetry, that's my opinion anyway, I personally think this gentleman is quite different from what I have taken notes from last week and it seems that he has been paid for the last few years but I have been trying to find out why he was very much like me and the other people who were trying to paint a picture with her hair and then we can bring her down to the film with the kids on the road with the kids on the way back home now so hopefully they'll be OK soon as well and have had a lovely day away with the snow today but the snow has finally arrived safely and it's raining now so I'll have to come tomorrow morning and see how life is peeling. Ledgend is Eminem, nothing bad about him at all.

He's done more drugs than any person should do, almost killed himself many times from that usage. Unfortunately even wrestlers who just use steroids die at such a younger age than others who don't take substances as such. Eminem being 47 and his body has already taken a toll trying to fight we may not have him for too much longer. Hate to say it, but it may happen much sooner than later.

eminem is the greatest. this song is stuck in my head. makes me think about the night I was beaten over the head by four masked men with baseball bats..I was pronounced dead at the hospital. It's a miracle that I'm alive. I went through drugs because of all the pain, defeated the addiction, and came out with a good heart. I was left for dead, and now my music helps people all over the world overcome loss, heartache, drugs, suicidal tendencious and other self-injurious behaviors. I've gained over a million views and twelve thousand subs in two years. thumbs up if you piss next to the water in the toilet so its quiet..

HOW MANY SONGS DO YOU HAVE STUCK IN YOUR HEAD?!

He said the exact same thing on will.i.ams scream and shout. How would scream and shout remind you of a beating?

I found this on lorde, imagine dragons, pink, mjk, Eminem, and one republic. NOBODY CARES DIPSHIT GO HOME BEFORE I PUT YOU IN THE HOSPITAL, BUT YOU WILL BE PRONOUNCED DEAD FOR SURE ONCE I FIND YOU. Lies everywhere. If there even was four masked men, i would clap because the because they nearly killed you. And this never happened because you never could have noticed what they were hitting you with because of brain damage. Not falling for it. I think the 107 likes you got were for the fact that you were beaten over the head.

You know what, real hip hop isn't just about being lyrical but it's also about expressing yourself and giving out a message, and this is real rap.

Step by step, heart to heart, left right leftWe all fall down...

[Chorus]Step by step, heart to heart, left right leftWe all fall down like toy soldiersBit by bit, torn apart, we never winBut the battle wages on for toy soldiers

[Verse 1]I'm supposed to be the soldier who never blows his composureEven though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shouldersI ain't never supposed to show it, my crew ain't supposed to know itEven if it means goin' toe to toe with a Benzino it don't matterI'd never drag them in battles that I can handle unless I absolutely have toI'm supposed to set an exampleI need to be the leader, my crew looks for me to guide 'emIf some shit ever does pop off, I'm supposed to be beside 'emThat Ja shit I tried to squash it, it was too late to stop itThere's a certain line you just don't cross and he crossed itI heard him say Hailie's name on a song and I just lost itIt was crazy, this shit went way beyond some Jay-z and Nas shitAnd even though the battle was won, I feel like we lost itI spent too much energy on it, honestly I'm exhaustedAnd I'm so caught in it I almost feel I'm the one who caused itThis ain't what I'm in hip-hop for, it's not why I got in itThat was never my object for someone to get killedWhy would I wanna destroy something I help buildIt wasn't my intentions, my intentions were goodI went through my whole career without ever mentionin'And that was just out of respect for not runnin' my mouthAnd talkin' about something that I knew nothing aboutPlus Dre told me stay out, this just wasn't my beefSo I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teethWhile he's all over t.v. down talkin' a man who literally saved my lifeLike fuck it i understand this is businessAnd this shit just isn't none of my businessBut still knowin' this shit could pop off at any minute cause

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]There used to be a time when you could just say a rhymeAnd wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dyin'But now it's elevated cause once you put someone's kids in itThe shit gets escalated, it ain't just words no more is it?It's a different ball game, callin' names and you ain't just rappin'We actually tried to stop the 50 and Ja beef from happenin'Me and Dre had sat with him, kicked it and had a chat with himAnd asked him not to start it he wasn't gonna go after himUntil Ja started yappin' in magazines how we stabbed himFuck it 50 smash 'em, mash 'em and let him have itMeanwhile my attention is pullin' in other directionsSome receptionist at The Source who answers phones at his deskHas an erection for me and thinks that I'll be his resurrectionTries to blow the dust off his mic and make a new recordBut now he's fucked the game up cause one of the ways I came upWas through that publication the same one that made me famousNow the owner of it has got a grudge against me for nothin'Well fuck it, that motherfucker can get it too, fuck him thenBut I'm so busy being pissed off I don't stop to thinkThat we just inherited 50's beef with Murder Inc.And he's inherited mine which is fine ain't like either of us mindWe still have soldiers that's on the front lineThat's willing to die for us as soon as we give the ordersNever to extort us, strictly to show they support usWe'll maybe shout 'em out in a rap or up in a chorusTo show them we love 'em back and let 'em know how important it isTo have Runyan Avenue, soldiers up in our cornersTheir loyalty to us is worth more than any award isBut I ain't tryna have none of my people hurt and murderedIt ain't worth it, I can't think of a perfecter way to word itThen to just say that I love ya'll too much to see the verdictI'll walk away from it all before I let it go any furtherBut don't get it twisted, it's not a plea that I'm coppin'I'm just willin' to be the bigger manIf ya'll can quit poppin' off at the jaws, well then I canCause frankly I'm sick of talkin'I'm not gonna let someone else's coffin rest on my conscience cause
